Explain kmem_cache_cpu fields
SLUB: Do not upset lockdep

Add parameter to add_partial to avoid having two functions
SLUB: rename defrag to remote_node_defrag_ratio
Move count_partial before kmem_cache_shrink

This change isn't really necessary for correctness, but it prevents lockdep
from getting upset and then disabling itself.

Add parameter to add_partial to avoid having two functions
Add a parameter to add_partial instead of having separate functions. The
parameter allows a more detailed control of where the slab pages is placed in
the partial queues.
If we put slabs back to the front then they are likely immediately used for
allocations. If they are put at the end then we can maximize the time that
the partial slabs spent without being subject to allocations.
When deactivating slab we can put the slabs that had remote objects freed (we
can see that because objects were put on the freelist that requires locks) to
them at the end of the list so that the cachelines of remote processors can
cool down. Slabs that had objects from the local cpu freed to them (objects
exist in the lockless freelist) are put in the front of the list to be reused
ASAP in order to exploit the cache hot state of the local cpu.
Patch seems to slightly improve tbench speed (1-2%).

vm audit: add VM_DONTEXPAND to mmap for drivers that need it
Drivers that register a ->fault handler, but do not range-check the

I've audited the tree and attempted to fix these problems (usually by

compile errors on m68k because <linux/platform_device.h> is not

An Athlon 64 X2 test system showed hard hangs shortly after marking

When changing the attributes of a pte, we should use the PFN from the

makes it more hairy to call any of these functions on non-direct maps
for no good reason whatsover.

This eliminates TLB flushes most of the time. The
performance-critical uses of pud_clear are during execve and exit, but
in those cases cr3 is referring to some other pagetable. The only

virtio: balloon driver
After discussions with Anthony Liguori, it seems that the virtio
balloon can be made even simpler. Here's my attempt.
The device configuration tells the driver how much memory it should
take from the guest (ie. balloon size). The guest feeds the page
numbers it has taken via one virtqueue.
A second virtqueue feeds the page numbers the driver wants back: if
the device has the VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_MUST_TELL_HOST bit, then this
queue is compulsory, otherwise it's advisory (and the guest can simply
fault the pages back in).
This driver can be enhanced later to deflate the balloon via a
shrinker, oom callback or we could even go for a complete set of
in-guest regulators.
